You are in for a real treat when you try this, it's one of my favorite recipes for Greek baklava! it has brandy in the syrup which makes it special! You will need 3 pounds of pecans, roughly 1 pound of melted butter and whole cloves. It is not really necessary to insert a whole clove on top of each slice of baklava, I do so only on the holidays.

I totally agree with Chabear01's review. These are sweet little morsals that are to die for. Just wonderful. I cut the recipe in half and could not for the life of me cut them into diamond shapes. You are missing something if you don't try these, diamond shape or not.

Forget weight control with these wonderfully sweet treats. I'll put money on it if you make these you can't eat just one. (And just a hint when working with the Filo ... act like it is a sheet and lay it into pan as if you were making a bed.) These are great and I just gotta thank you Kitz for sharing this recipe.
